I'm not surprise by this. Seeing how Lemmy has a hard coded wordfilter specifically to discourage "right-wingers" from using it. They did remove it. But still, it's not a good look.
They hardcoded it because there were no mod tools back then, and the repo was basically lemmy.ml.
I don't think we should look at this anymore.
They did once. They totally not going to do something like it again. /s
Beauty of FOSS is anybody can just remove it.
If someone removes it.
EDIT Just don't do it in the first place. So some third party don't have to remove the shit from it.
But they're not doing it. You're just freaking out because they could, hypothetically do it. And then you're getting angry because your hypothetical admins - who are in your head - are doing it, which you MADE them do - because, again, this is all a scenario in your head.
